Yorke Peninsula Council will present the Robert Street, Maitland, Draft Concept Report at a final community feedback session on Thursday, 25 August.

Council will hold an in-person community consultation session and stakeholder-focussed discussion.

The final sessions follow five weeks of community consultation, an online survey and community workshops.

Council has been working with WAX Design, who will be at the session to present the report and take questions, on the report for the past few months.

The report provides a planning framework for the main street of Maitland and ensures future actions, development proposals, public and private investment, and capital works contribute to achieving the vision for Robert Street while ensuring the town’s sense of place and intrinsic character remain intact.

The recommendations contained within this document will require an ongoing commitment from the community, Council, key stakeholders, investors and State Government.

“Robert Street is impacted by a number of challenges and has many social, economic, and environmental opportunities,” Council Operations Manager Stephen Goldsworthy said.

“The community’s desire for a vibrant main street with amenity, public space, and community value is evident from the feedback we have received.”

The sessions will be held on Thursday, 25 August, from 4.30pm to 5.30pm and 6pm to 6.30pm.
